News of note
T
he American Society for Dermatologic Surgery reports on consumer trends in medically necessary
and cosmetic procedures through two national surveys each year.
The ASDS Survey on Dermatologic Procedures presents the total number of treatments
performed by Society members in a variety of categories. The annual survey continues to reveal
trends in the subspecialty including:
• The worrisome increase in the number of skin cancer procedures continues.
• Fat-freezing and laserlipolysis for body sculpting are growing in popularity.
• A growing number of people are having tattoos removed.
• More men are getting injectable treatments.
Watch for the 2014 ASDS Survey on Dermatologic Procedures in February 2015.
The ASDS Consumer Survey on Cosmetic Dermatologic Procedures annually asks women and
men a range of questions about cosmetic procedures. Trends identified through this survey include:
• More consumers are considering getting a cosmetic procedure, from 3 in 10 in 2013 to 5 in 10 in 2014.
• Injectables continue to garner top satisfaction ratings.
• Dermatologists have the most influence (of 14 choices) on a consumer’s decision to have a procedure.
• The consistent No. 1 reason for seeking a procedure: “I want to look as young as I feel or better for my age.”
Watch for the 2015 ASDS Consumer Survey on Cosmetic Dermatologic Procedures in June 2015.

welcome
Welcome to the 2014-15 ASDS Experts Guide
W
riters, editors and producers frequently turn to the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery
for insight and information on skin health and beauty.
The 2014-15 ASDS Experts Guide connects those who need to know with those in the know: ASDS
member dermatologists, the leaders and pioneers in the field of dermatologic surgery.
Their groundbreaking research has resulted in many important treatments. ASDS members have led
the way on skin cancer prevention, detection and treatment, plus procedures to improve scars, remove
blemishes and fill lines and wrinkles. From injectables to lasers to cutting-edge therapies, dermatologic
surgeons are at the forefront of innovative skin treatments.
This guide contains brief snapshots of nearly 80 ASDS members. Each entry includes
availability and contact information, plus conditions and treatments in which the member
has expertise. The preferred contact method is marked with an asterisk (*).
In addition, members have indicated if they have patients willing to share their stories of skin cancer
treatments, cosmetic dermatologic procedures or adverse effects suffered because of treatments
performed by a non-physician.
Many physicians request they be contacted via ASDS, and their biographies reflect that. Please call
or email ASDS Communications Manager Beth Bales at 847-956-9143 ([email protected])
or ASDS Director of PR, Communications and Marketing Jolene Kremer at 847-956-9133
([email protected]). Either will be happy to arrange an interview.
This ASDS Experts Guide represents only a fraction of our nearly 5,800 members, all of them wellversed in dermatologic conditions and their treatments. Visit our website, asds.net, for a complete look
at dermatologic surgery, skin conditions and treatments as well as skin cancer therapies and prevention.
